the quest for an exciting life through law school.

life seems to be cooperating with me in achieving my goal of having a more exciting life this last school year. a big change i can say in my study habits. just when i've already accepted my being a nerd a year or two ago, perhaps now, when called as such, i would vehemently deny it. i spend way less time in the lib (now it merely serves as a depository of my stuff and on some occassions of seeking for solitude, my mind-resting hangout place.) you see, lib as a hangout place, for many people, sounds so geeky and nerdy and all the disgusting notions associated with the place. but hey, i hang out there for completely different purposes. to aircondition, to chat, and to spot ;) . actually it's less of the latter. hehe. i rarely do that. anyway, when one's trying to battle with the neverending heat of the well-unappreciated extended summer, the best place to go to is the lib or, thing to do, to aircondition. hehe.

having gone to the tent last weekend for the book signing made me realize how much i have missed out on in the past. that instead of confining myself to the four corners of my room (FOR SOME TIME ONLY) or waiting for my feet to ache for endlessly wandering the mall, i should've done something else. sheesh. but oh well, no regrets, as it always should be. i'm not really going to narrate what had happened last weekend. the event was just helluvan event. puta!

after finding out that a friend of mine is going to law school, it also made me think twice about and question the path of my own future. where do i really want to be? what do i really want to be? corporate world or law? in the past, i've always had an inclination towards the two directions. i've always thought that either way, i'd be happy. but close to completing my management degree, it got me leaning more towards the corporate world option. it was just lately that i thought again about possibly going to law school.

but do i really want to be a lawyer? perhaps i wish to be there for the wrong reasons. or what are the wrong reasons anyway? until now i'm still deciding. part of me wants to pursue it. the bigger part of me though seems to be telling me that i'm not for that profession or that i'm merely forcing myelf to be there. it's just that, i can't picture myself studying about laws all day and all night. law school is something for the die-hard law fans and not just for anyone trying to find thrill in their lives or kill time. i understand that i once considered this as an end. but it never got into me to take this so seriously that would actually make me think about going to law school. oh well.

there goes my confused life. and yeah, an exciting one too.
